mill shoe

A downhole tool routinely used in fishing operations to prepare the top and outside surface of a fish, generally to allow an overshot or similar fishing tool to engage cleanly on the fish. In some cases, the outer portion of a fish may be milled out to allow the body and remaining debris to be pushed to the bottom of the wellbore.
